Alice was enumerated in the 1870 census in Montclair, Essex, New Jersey with her parents.[1] She was enumerated in 1880 census in Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts living at 53 Worcester Street, with her husband and children.[2] She was enumerated in 1900 and 1910 in Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts living at 342 Marlborough Street with her husband and children.[3] The home on Marlborough is still standing and has been divided into condos.

Alice’s husband was a noted physician and professor at Harvard College, teaching about diseases of children.[4] He was very forward thinking when it came to the whole child, not just the current issue. His father (Dr. Charles E. BUCKINGHAM) was also a noted physician.

Possible child

Asa LADD is my second cousin eight times removed; related through John and Ruth (SWAN) HARTSHORN. He is said to have died in Suffolk County, Massachusetts on 17 June 1775 which happens to be the date of the Battle of Bunker Hill. I can find no records of him being involved in the battle, but, due to his location and the date of his death, and the fact that he died in a county he didn’t live in, it’s a safe bet that he died in battle or wounds sustained while in battle.

Asa LADD was born 16 March 1736 in Haverhill, Essex, Massachusetts, there are some conflicting recordings in some books with date 10 March 1735.[1] He was the son of Daniel and Mehitable (ROBERTS) LADD. He died 17 June 1775 in Suffolk, Massachusetts.

Dilley married Clement CASTELL/CASTLE at St. John the Baptist in Margate, Kent, England.[22] Clement was born 1768 in England. He was the son of George and Ann (COCK) CASTLE.

Note:

There is little known about the children of Asa and Hannah, no records other than birth were found in the state. It could be they took their step-father’s name once the parents married. As to Dilly Sarah, I believe I have the correct person for the records. If you find otherwise please let me know.
